I don’t know who is more shocked—me or Calcifer! How are we already almost done with this week? . . I have tons of reviews coming up which is exciting, but also so is the fact it’s now officially autumn in New England. But that means Nor’easters and this week we are going to get slammed with 10” of rain! Which is prime time reading... especially if we lose power. . . What’s new with you guys?! . . #bookish #bookstagram #booklover#bookaddict #book #reading #ireadYA#bookphotography #bookworm#bibliophile#booknerdigans #booksofinstagram#booklove #yabooks #bookishfeatures#bookstagramfeature #bookaholic#currentlyreading #fiction #yareads#instareads #bookstagrammer#reader #yalovin#yalit #booknerd #goodreads
To read or not to read... why is that even a question? I’m tackling several reads right now. With a new puppy in the family I’ve been crashing at night without much reading ahh... sadness. But soon I’ll have some book reviews to share with you. For now just gawk at my bookshelf and my amazing bracelet designed by @jewelsbymia1 ! . . #bookish #bookstagram #booklover#bookaddict #book #reading #ireadYA#bookphotography #bookworm#bibliophile#booknerdigans #booksofinstagram#booklove #yabooks #bookishfeatures#bookstagramfeature #bookaholic#currentlyreading #fiction #yareads#instareads #bookstagrammer#reader #yalovin#yalit #booknerd #goodreads
Good morning bookwyrms! Today is prep for torrential downpour day. As in, as soon as I’m done with my coffee I have to run outside and put all the tools my lovely husband left outside back in the shed. 😂 🏃🏻‍♀️ 🏃🏻‍♀️ Also, new review alert! Full review posted on the blog (link in bio) but I just reviewed American Royals by Katherine McGee. I gave it 3.5 savvy crowns! An interesting take on American history while also being a contemporary romance. It’s light, fluffy, but can be a bit jarring as it jumps between 4 different POV. Definitely a cliffhanger!! . . PS... thoughts are with you PR! Be safe!! . . #bookstagram #book #books#bookshelf #bookquotes #bookclub#bookshelves #bookworm#bookobsessed #bookish#bookcommunity #bookaholic#booklover #bookphotography#booking #bookshop #bookmark#bookaddict #booktag#booksbooksbooks #booksofig#booknerd #bookhoarder #bookstore#bookblogger #booktography#bookstagrammer #bookdragon#booksofinstagram
Me writing new reviews, getting more ARCs, reorganizing my shelf, and all that insane goodness. . . How has your month of reading gone so far? I’m finally on my way out of a slump! . . #bookish #bookstagram #booklover#bookaddict #book #reading #ireadYA#bookphotography #bookworm#bibliophile#booknerdigans #booksofinstagram#booklove #yabooks #bookishfeatures#bookstagramfeature #bookaholic#currentlyreading #fiction #yareads#instareads #bookstagrammer#reader #yalovin#yalit #booknerd #goodreads
Currently reading Evil Queen by Gena Showalter. Confession time—this is only my second book I’ve read by her. It’s an interesting read for sure and a play on Snow White and Rose Red. I’m actually partaking in @netgalley ‘s #reviewathon and hope to fly through some reads after this! I’m halfway through the book. 💀 . . What is on your TBR for this month? . . #bookaddict #instabook #instareads #bookgasm #bibliophile #bookme #books #bookblog #bookaddict #bookworm #bookdragon #bookstagrammer #bookishlife #yareads #booksofinstagram #instareads #bookcommunity #bookshelf #fantasyreads #fantasybooks #bookrecs #yagram #booklife
